]]> Have you been trying to grow your glutes and have yet to see progress? Not to worry, you’re not the only one. Here are some helpful tips to get your booty looking bigger and stronger.

Romanian Deadlifts

Romanian Deadlifts, or RDL for short, are great hamstring exercises, but they double as glute workouts. The way your hips bend while doing this pulls the glute muscle, thus activating it for a
beautiful burn.

Barbell Hip Thrusts

These are a go-to for targeting the glutes. Although this is a crucial exercise, it is easy to do it wrong. For this one, make sure you choose a heavy weight to give you a challenge but allow you to maintain proper form. Be sure to tuck your chin and do the correct foot placement.

Sumo Squats

While highly similar to a classic squat, Sumo squats target the glutes, hamstrings, quads, calves, and inner thighs. In this case, you stand with your legs more than shoulder-width apart. For an added challenge, use a weight.

Bulgarian Split Squats

Finally, Bulgarian split squats. This one may take some practice and time. Grab a workout bench and something to hold onto. If you’re a beginner, doing this near a wall or something sturdy may benefit you.

]]> When you think of working the glutes, you’re probably thinking about squats, lunges or deadlifts. There are actually more exercises that you can try to target the butt, and they can be modified by the addition of weights or bands. Strengthening your glutes will ease your daily physical movement, stabilizing your hips and lower back. Before you start your squats and deadlifts, try out these four exercises.

Step Up

Stand facing the box, holding dumbbells or a kettlebell. Place the left foot on the box and push through that leg to lift the right leg from the floor. Drive the right knee up so it is a at a 90-degree angle and then place it back on the floor. Do 10 reps on each side.

Walking Lunges

Take a set of dumbbells and start with your feet together at one end of the gym. Step the right leg forward and bend both knees to lower in a lunge. Press through the right foot to stand and then step the left leg forward and bend both knees into a lunge. Walk this way to the other end of the gym and back again.

Single Leg Deadlift

Stand on the left leg and bring the right foot behind the left leg, point position. The arm with the weight is down by your side and will go down towards the floor when you start the exercise. Engage the abs and start to lean forward, lifting the right leg straight back so your torso and leg are parallel to the floor. Bring the right leg back to start position. Do 12 reps on each side.

Banded Glute Bridge

Wrap a small resistant band around your thighs and lie flat on your back on a yoga mat, with your knees bent and pushing against the band and feet on the floor. Engage your core and start to lift the hips towards to the ceiling, keeping tension with the band the entire way up. Hold for one to two seconds and then come down to start position. Do 15 reps.

]]> Some people enjoy the boost of confidence they get from doing demanding fitness routines, but some of them are better performed in moderation. After all, if you work out too hard, you may burn yourself out and eventually stop working out completely! We definitely don’t want that—and that’s the case with these three activities that can do you more harm than good if you do them every day.

HIIT

High-intensity interval training has been one of the most popular fitness trends for a few years now, but it’s recommended to take rest days between your sessions. The high intensity of this fitness routine can put too much stress on your body, and that’s why it’s important to never go overboard.

Running

Running on a daily basis can lead to improved health, but it’s also risky if you’re prone to joint pain. Due to the high-impact nature of this exercise, you should avoid pushing yourself to the limit because burnout and injuries are pretty common.

Powerlifting

Unless you’re a professional bodybuilder, doing powerlifting exercises on a daily basis is excessive and completely unnecessary. Squats, bench presses, and deadlifts can all put too much pressure on your back when done with weights and that’s why you should tread lightly when doing them.

Here’s more about hip thrusts and deadlifts so you can decide which to include in your routine. Spoiler alert: one is definitely more effective than the other!

Deadlifts

Deadlifts are a great functional movement as the hip hinge will help you in everyday life like lifting things from the floor. The downside is that if they’re not done properly, they can lead to lower-back injuries. They require a lot of core strength, stability, and grip strength, which can limit the amount of weight you can lift.

Hip Thrusts

Hip thrusts are an easier movement to do and there’s a lower risk for injury because they don’t require the core and lower back muscles to carry the weight. The exercise also isolates the glutes more than the deadlift. They’re also done lying down, which is better for those who have knee or back issues than standing exercises like deadlifts. So, if you’re trying to build stronger glutes, hip thrusts are the clear winner.

To combat that, we comprised a list of the 5 best workouts that will help you get a stronger back. 

Barbell Deadlift

Considered the king of exercises, it will help you build your back but also it will engage the legs, arms, and shoulders giving you a full-body workout. 

Pull-Ups

One of the classic workouts that have been with us since the dawn of time. It’s a must for the one who wants a developed and good-looking body. 

https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz6VAJchvSz/

Bent-Over Barbell Row

Another classic, this exercise will mainly help you build your middle back, but will also engage many other muscles. 

Single-Arm Dumbbell Row

Similar to the bent-over row but performed using a bench, it will help in developing lats, rhomboids, and traps.  

Cable Rows

This is one of the best exercises if you are aiming to develop your upper back, as doing this exercise with a pause can really boost the gains.

SMILE it's MONDAY! 👀 I'm rapidly healing from that lower back pull 😁. This little incident allowed me to give some appreciation to slow ECCENTRIC work. – For those who are looking to build some quality size and even build endurance this is for you. I used to be in the routine of just rep in rep out but doing controlled eccentrics will make you work harder and have to focus in total control of the weight being used. – Don't over exaggerate with slow eccentrics of 10 seconds either since you probably will use a weight that's too light for you to get a proper growth response I like to go for 3-5 seconds of controlled negatives and then explode on the concentric phase! Happy Monday again and get those GAINS!!!👐🏽 ➖➖➖➖ * * * * #pharmathlete #teampharmathlete #follow4value #pharmathlétique #pharmathletic #backattack #backworkout #fitnessguru #fitfam #mondayfitness #cablerows

Exercises to improve posture

Deadlifts

Deadlifts work on muscles surrounding the posterior chain such as glutes, hamstrings, spinal erector, trapezius muscles and others.

This exercise has an advantage because it works on two main muscle groups that improve posture. Deadlifts also improve core stabilization while strengthening the spine.

During deadlift movement, you work on extending the hips fully and rotating your shoulders. The movement helps straighten the muscles, and this will inadvertently improve body posture.

Your shoulders should also be retracted and down engaging the upper back muscles. Keeping the bar close to your body also helps in decreasing the moment arm from your hips.

Kettlebell swings

Kettlebell swings also help improve posture because they train the entire body. When you do this exercise, you engage the abs, glutes, back, core, hamstrings, and shoulders. The muscles, when trained, can become stronger and more flexible as time passes. People with office jobs can use it to reverse the negative effects of sitting for too long.

Seated cable rows

This exercise comes in handy, as well even, though it focuses on the back muscles. The best position for correcting posture is the close-grip position. It targets the back muscles mainly. Be sure to get the proper form to prevent back pain after exercising.
